“Awesome loval pick! I ordered the “pick your own” grain bowl, and every ingredient tasted incredibly fresh and flavorful. You could really tell the quality was top-notch. Everything blended together beautifully and was absolutely delicious. The service was just as impressive as the food. Our waitress was attentive, friendly, and made sure everything met our expectations from start to finish. If you’re looking for fresh, high-quality Mexican cuisine with outstanding service, I highly recommend this spot. I’ll definitely be back!”

“If I could give this restaurant more stars I would. My boyfriend and I been wondering about this place for years. He took me for Valentine’s, let me give you a quick rundown. We had reservations but arrived 15 minutes early. We were greeted by Laura. She really set the tone for how service was going to go. Very polite, attentive and friendly. She handled the front very well. Our waitress was Angela or Angie. Customer service was wonderful. She was friendly and offered great recommendations. She answered all of our questions. The food was well seasoned and cooked with love. The drinks were the best part! The restaurant itself was beautiful and clean. The communication between the staff was professional so the restaurant ran smooth. We definitely recommend.”

“First time trying this restaurant while visiting Michigan, and overall it was a good experience. The ambience and atmosphere were amazing ,especially since we went during Valentine’s Day week with a group of four, which made it feel extra special. The food was mostly good. The starter chips with three different dips were tasty and a great way to begin the meal. The elote corn was fresh and flavorful. My friend ordered the enchiladas, which tasted good, though the sauce was a bit too thick. I ordered the curried taco, but it was lacking sauce and ended up tasting bland. My husband tried the meat taco and shrimp taco and really enjoyed both — he said they tasted fresh and had great flavor. For drinks, I ordered an espresso martini and asked for a shot of Baileys, but it came with a mix of everything and even had salt on the rim, which was a bit off-putting and not what I expected. Drumroll……. The highlight of the night was definitely the sticky toffee pudding — it was THE BEST and absolutely worth it! Overall, I was a little hesitant since it had fewer Yelp reviews, but it didn’t disappoint. While a couple of dishes could use some improvement, the ambience and the vibe is worth experiencing.”

“My wife and I watched this restaurant being built and I have wanted to visit it since it opened. My wife, who is not a huge fan of Mexican food, has had no desire to. I am alone today so I decided to give it a try. Given it is in a very affluent part of town, I was not surprised that that it is not a traditional authentic Mexican restaurant. I settled on Cubano tacos with cilantro rice and refried beans. The service was good (it was past the normal lunch hour so the restaurant was not very full) and I received the dish quite quickly. The refried beans were excellent but the rice was dry, quite flavorless, and did not have any taste of cilantro. The waiter asked me how things were and when I mentioned this fact to him, he comped me a second helping of refried beans. Strangely enough, the second helping of beans were considerably more spicy than the first but still good. The tacos had carnitas pork, thinly sliced ham, Swiss cheese, and a mustard sauce. They were very good. The waiter eventually brought me some salsa to put on the rice and it was tolerable then. I enjoy pastel de tres leches at every Mexican restaurant I visit. They call it cinco leche cake here and it was topped with a raspberry and blueberry sauce. The cake was outstanding. I wasn’t blown away by the entree enough to go back but I would definitely go back for the cake. I may convince my wife to go just for the cake.”

“Really great spot for upscale Mexican in Bloomfield Hills. There are plenty of traditional Mexican restaurants across Metro Detroit, but not many that offer a more upscale, modern aesthetic with a solid cocktail program, and this place fills that gap well. The chips were excellent, thick and fresh, and clearly made in house. The salsas were flavorful and well balanced, though none were very spicy, so it may fall a bit mild for people who like heat. I ordered the burrito, which was very large and filling and overall good. That said, it leaned a bit too heavily on white rice, and the flavor came across somewhat bland compared to the rest of the dish. I ended up adding quite a bit of hot sauce to bring it together, which helped but felt necessary rather than optional. We also ordered the elote as an appetizer, but it never came out, we ended up cancelling it because our entree had come. I rated this four stars because while the food was good and the atmosphere and cocktails were strong, the burrito lacked flavor balance and the missed appetizer took away from the overall experience. Definitely a place worth checking out, especially if you are looking for a more elevated Mexican dining option. I will be for sure returning with my wife.”
